The command in windows 9x is winipcfg. So my question to you all is this: I want to know the windows command for ipconfig in NT as well as 2000, I know you can use ipconfig in dos in 2000 and NT but there is another command that is like the winipcfgin 9x that you can use. I KNOW ABOUT IPCONFIG THAT IS DOS. I WANT TO KNOW WHAT THE COMMAND IS THAT I HAVE TO TYPE IN THE RUN LINE FOR THE GUI INTERFACE CONFIG. Thank you and have a great day I look forward to hearing the answer please EMAIL me the answer. wroming@ci.killeen.tx.us Thank you

There is NO GUI config utility for NT/2000, you must use it at the DOS prompt. This is by design.
If you are using the windows scripting host, you can build one though. Here is the url to a article on this site written by Daily Drill Down, Greg Shultz, Windows Scripting Host guru that will give you what you are looking for:

Actually if You are owner of NT or W2k resource kit there is a package called:

wntipcfg

As a "port" of the Win95 program.

Hi,

you can find that tool in NT-Reskit or W2k Rekit, WNTIPCFG.EXE. Works the same as Winipcfg.exe for Win9X.

Hope it helps

To expand on answer #2, you can find Wntipcfg.exe on the Resource Kit by doing a search for Netmgmt.cab. When you find the cab file, simply double click it. You will then be able to copy Wntipcfg.exe to your system32 directory.
